Delon Wright Expected to Return on Monday
Toronto Raptors point guard Delon Wright (groin) is expected to play in Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Wright only played five minutes before leaving during his season debut due to groin tightness. Fred Vanvleet (toe) is questionable for Monday, so Wright would see increased minutes without VanVleet in the rotation. Wright isn't going to […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoKevin Knox Could Return Soon
New York Knicks forward Kevin Knox (ankle) is expected to return between Nov. 2 and 10, according to Marc Berman. The timetable is now two-to-three weeks, which is good because at first he was expected to miss over a month. Knox was able to get some shots up during Friday's practice. Mario Hezonja, Noah Vonleh, […]

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (personal) did not play on Friday and missed practice on Sunday. However, Anunoby is expected to be ready for Monday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. Anunoby is a solid defensive player, but can be left on the waiver wire in most leagues.

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred Vanvleet (toe) went through a limited practice on Sunday. He is considered questionable for Monday's game. VanVleet was listed as probable on Friday, but sat out of that contest. Delon Wright would see increased playing time if VanVleet is unable to suit up.
Andy Webb 6 years agoDillon Brooks is Available Off The Bench
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks (foot) will be available off the bench for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Kyle Anderson is in the starting lineup, but his early struggles could mean more minutes for Brooks. However, it's unlikely that Brooks gets enough minutes to be valuable in fantasy leagues.
Andy Webb 6 years agoWayne Ellington, Derrick Jones Will Play Saturday
Miami Heat guard/forward Wayne Ellington (ankle) and forward Derrick Jones (foot) are both available for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Ellington will make his season debut, but Rodney McGruder has been playing well, so it'll be interesting to see how the minutes are distributed. Jones has been playing power forward this season, so […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoAnthony Davis Sitting Out on Saturday
New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis (elbow) will not play in Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. He suffered the issue during Friday's game and it reportedly didn't bother him until after the game. Julius Randle (foot) will move into the starting lineup for this one. He's a fairly decent option for DFS contests. Cheick […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoMarc Gasol Will Play on Saturday
Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol (neck) will play against the Phoenix Suns on Saturday. Gasol has been dealing with neck soreness, but did return to practice on Friday without any setbacks.

Andy Webb 6 years agoDillon Brooks Listed as Probable on Saturday
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks (foot) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He was called doubtful for Wednesday's game and still played 14 minutes.

Andy Webb 6 years agoMarkieff Morris Misses Practice on Saturday
Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris (illness) did not practice on Saturday. He looked fine against the Kings on Friday, but hopefully this is nothing serious. The Wizards play the Clippers on Sunday, so Morris is going to need to get over this illness quickly. Jeff Green and Kelly Oubre would see increased roles if Morris […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoJoel Embiid is Questionable on Saturday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (ankle) rolled his ankle in practice and is questionable for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Embiid has been playing nearly 36 minutes per game, so they may decide to be cautious with him. This report was announced on Friday, so there has been no update on Embiid's current status. […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoRodions Kurucs Sitting Out on Sunday
Brooklyn Nets forward Rodions Kurucs (ankle) is sitting out of Sunday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Kurucs will sit out about a week after tweaking his ankle last weekend.

Andy Webb 6 years agoDarius Miller Won't Play on Saturday
New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Darius Miller (quad) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. Miller suffered a right quad contusion during Friday's contest.

Andy Webb 6 years agoLuc Mbah a Moute is Questionable for Sunday
Los Angeles Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards. He did not play on Friday due to a lingering knee issue.

Andy Webb 6 years agoLonzo Ball Will Start on Saturday
Los Angeles Lakers point guard Lonzo Ball will remain in the starting lineup against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday. The Lakers have played their two best games of the season with Ball as the starter. Rajon Rondo (suspension) is returning on Saturday, but will come off the bench. This is great news for Ball's […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoRussell Westbrook Doesn't Practice on Saturday
Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook (shoulder) did not practice on Saturday and his status for Sunday's game is unclear. He missed the first two games of the season while recovering from knee surgery. It's unknown how Westbrook picked up this shoulder issue. Dennis Schroder would start and be a popular DFS candidate, assuming […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoJames Johnson Ruled Out on Saturday
Miami Heat forward James Johnson (groin) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Johnson has been practicing this week, but has not been cleared to play yet.

Andy Webb 6 years agoReggie Bullock is Probable Saturday
Detroit Pistons forward Reggie Bullock (shoulder) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. Bullock is dealing with a left shoulder sprain, but it does not appear to be serious. Luke Kennard (shoulder) is sidelined currently and Stanley Johnson has been awful. Bullock is going to see big minutes right now, but […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoJulius Randle Listed as Probable on Saturday
New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Julius Randle (foot) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. Randle is dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Elfrid Payton (leg) is expected to play on Saturday and is not on the injury report against the Utah Jazz.

Andy Webb 6 years agoJustise Winslow Remains Probable Against Blazers
Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (hamstring) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Andy Webb 6 years agoWayne Ellington is Probable on Saturday
Miami Heat guard/forward Wayne Ellington (ankle) is probable for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This would be his season debut, assuming he doesn't suffer a setback before tip off. Ellington is going to have competition with Dwayne Wade and Rodney McGruder fighting for the same minutes. Ellington has some fantasy value, but mostly […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoTyreke Evans Won't Play Saturday
Indiana Pacers guard/forward Tyreke Evans (personal) won't play in Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Evans reportedly violated team rules by missing practice, so he'll be forced to sit out a game. Head coach Nate McMillan didn't offer many details about the situation. Darren Collison and Cory Joseph will see increased minutes and usage on […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoIman Shumpert Remains Questionable on Friday
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He sat out on Wednesday after being listed as questionable for that contest as well. Justin Jackson could be looking at a bigger role in the rotation without Shumpert around. However, owners will likely have to wait until closer to […]
Andy Webb 6 years agoIan Mahinmi Remains Questionable on Friday
Washington Wizards center Ian Mahinmi (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He missed Wednesday's contest and did not go through shootaround on Friday.

Andy Webb 6 years agoBradley Beal is Questionable on Friday
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (chest) did not go through shootaround and is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He took a hit to the chest on Wednesday, but the X-rays came back clean. Beal sitting out for shootaround is not a good sign. Austin Rivers and Kelly Oubre would be […]
